Happy Halloween From The Compound, Part 2

We're very happy to report that last night, we broke our record for Trick-or-Treaters.  We had 9 kids.  That's up from the previous 4 year record of 5.  The kids didn't want to leave - they wanted to stay and play in the huge pile of leaves that Dad raked for them.  But their over-zealous parents were yelling "Get out of the leaves - you'll ruin your make-up."  And that came from the kids Dads, not their Moms.  Interesting.

We stayed outside from suppertime until bedtime and had a blast. Our party was a huge success.  We even had a special celebrity guest attend - Elvis. And I have pictures to prove it, too.  But you know something odd? We didn't see Mom all evening long.  Hmmmm.  Oh well - she must have grabbed a pillowcase and went out trick-or-treating with the kids across the street.
